Well, I’m here to inform you that the impossible has happened. Between Palazzo Versace in Australia and Armani Hotel Dubai, hotels designed by fashion bigwigs is hardly a new idea. But, as of earlier this month, Karl Lagerfeld has agreed to follow in his peers’ footsteps. That’s right – the Karl Lagerfeld Hotel, a 270-room, 20-story high-rise, is set to open in Macau, China in 2017.

However so-last-year the concept may be, we can be sure to expect one-of-a-kind Lagerfeld-level luxury through and through. When asked about his new feat, the German designer quoted his house’s namesake: “You know, Gabrielle Chanel always said, ‘I only make dresses I would wear.’ And I make only rooms where I would like to sleep. It’s as simple as that.”

The Lagerfeld Hotel will be part of a larger complex complete with restaurants and casinos. The only unanswered question? When can we make reservations?
